I put my TG spacer kit on Wednesday and took it to Firestone that day too have the alignment done. I brought my cam bolts with and told them i wanted those on. I get a call saying to come pick up my X because its done. I get there they said they didn't need the new bolts (my X is an 06'). I looked at the alignment and it barely looks like they did anything. The tires are still toe in. I'm going to take it to another Firestone center to fix it, i think the other guys were just being lazy because they didn't want to install the new bolts.

Did you get the print out?

It's hard to eyeball an alignment.

 

[RESISTTHEFIST]

ill have to check but it looks pretty crappy

When you get an alignment at most places (and I know all firestones do), you get a print out that has the before and after numbers. It's harder to cheat these numbers than it is to just do the work as it's all generated from the computer.

If they gave you no such sheets then they might not have done anything, but that is unlikely.

Firestone wouldn't even touch my truck due to the lift. Either way, after the last 2 days, i need another alignment BAD!!!

firestone did my last alignment a few days ago, i'm still toed in, but i think it maybe due to the excessive wear i already have on the outer edges on the tires due to an already screwed up alignment.

anyone know why they wouldnt use the cam bolts?

:clown: Just out of curiousirity, RESISTTHEFIST, do you have the REQUIRED (4) cam bolts ?????


--If, just aligned with (2), installed-- toe-in and caster will change, toe-in the most !!!

I'm in the predicament of thinking I need to replace my cam bolts due to no alignment holding more than about 2 weeks! I can see the two cams from looking at the LCA's from the front, how do I know if I have all 4?

 

[willgr1]

you either have them or you don't, all 4 are attached to the LCA, the two you can see from the front and the two that attach to the back of the LCA

 

[RESISTTHEFIST]

I purchased all four off of a link off of this forum. I have all four but they didn't install any of them.

RESISTTHEFIST, don't worry too much about it... I did the Daystar lift and didn't need the cam bolts.

My story is almost identical to yours... I took it in and said "use 'em if you need 'em."

I had mine aligned after just putting the spacers on; then again after doing the rear. Both times the camber was good and the bolts weren't needed. Keep 'em in your garage for future use.
